This week's Soap Opera Digest features an article about John, Brady and Kristen.

Brady buys Kristen a bracelet as a gift. He writes a love note with it.

Victor later sees Brady and Kristen talking and picks up on what's going on. He tells Brady to stay away from Kristen. Victor then asks John to come to the mansion, and he tells John that Kristen is as crafty as Stefano and that Brady needs to be careful. John then sees Brady's gift prepared for Kristen.

Brady goes to the Salem Inn, where he and Kristen again have sex. Afterwards, they are getting dressed when John knocks on the door. Brady decides to hide within the hotel room. Eric Martsolf says this is difficult for Brady since he's the type to want to announce his feelings.

Kristen lets John into the room but helps Brady stay hidden.

John gives Kristen the gift that he found that Brady had prepared for her. He also thanks her for not calling the police about Marlena's break-in. When John leaves, Brady takes the gift and presents it to Kristen. Eileen Davidson says that Kristen is falling for Brady, though she doesn't want to...

Thanks for posting. I really don't want their relationship to get too sappy too quickly. That could become unbearable. Brady always thinks he loves the women he's with after being with them for about five minutes. I don't want to start seeing the profusions of love that we saw with Bradison. A realization on Kristen's part that her feelings are a bit deeper than she anticipated is fine, but Brady giving her gifts already is too much. You don't give someone special gifts just because you've had great sex a few times. Get a grip, Brady. Glad Victor is wise to this and John's case of sudden, inexplicable naivety doesn't appear to be contagious.

I'm fine with this scenario (I'd rather see a predictable use someone for sex only to fall for him than watch Kristen chase John for the 1000th time) except it's so freaking fast. I mean even faster than usual fast.

I really think they should have waited after the Marlena break in incident to let Brady and Kristen have a week of the new "Maybe I don't hate you at all" stage to sink before jumping into bed. And I'm sure Kristen herself will be uttering I love you to Brady (and mean it) before Christmas. Sigh.

Ugh, I don't want Kristen to fall for Brady. I just want her to mess with his head a little. Is that too much to ask? :shrug:

I hope they don't attempt to make Kristen "good". Kristen ONLY works as a villainess. I want her engaging in nefarious plots like she did in the 90s. That's what made Kristen popular. People loved her as a vixen. They did NOT like her as a goodie-goodie, like the writers are attempting to write Sami now. Kristen should stay evil to be entertaining.

I don't mind Kristen having "feelings" for Brady, as long as she maintains her villainess edge. They can give Brady an edge, too, if they want. Just don't make Kristen "good" and "schmoopy".

C'mon, girl, push through. Don't become another one of those Salem women who gets all weak because some guy pays them a little attention!

I'm hoping this doesn't turn into...Kristen falls in love, then Brady finds out she was wicked like Marlena said and dumps her, and then Kristen begs and pleads for forgiveness. That would suck. Brady ain't worth it, imho.

MOTHERFUCKER!!!! WHY can't this show have any real villains?! I was getting ok with Kristen & Brady and would have been ok (or at least somewhat in character I guess) for Brady to have "feelings" for her, but for her to have any feelings other than maybe lust for him is sooooooooooo fucking LAME!!!

I'm not usually a fan of pregnancy storylines, but I'd actually like it if Kristen's ultimate plan was to get pregnant with Brady's baby. Kristen being the mother of John's grandson would forever tie her to John (and, to a lesser extent, to Marlena). And the pregnancy could be used as a good umbrella storyline: Marlena could encourage Brady to sue for full custody of the child. Stefano could want to use the child as leverage against John in one of Stefano's evil schemes. Peter could return to give Kristen emotional support during her pregnancy. Brady could fall off the wagon due to all the stress during Kristen's pregnancy. Susan could even briefly return because she's worried about EJ now that Kristen is back, and Susan could cause some more drama in Kristen's pregnancy.

So, I see a lot of directions for the storyline to go with a Kristen/Brady baby. Really, I'm just hoping that there's more to Kristen's scheme than just the "make John jealous" shenanigans.

how predictable that Kristen ends up falling for Brady after only initially sleeping with him to try to make John jealous.

That's what I don't like.

I was only okay with Kristen and Brady because I was under the impression that Kristen was using him to get to John and they weren't being built as a legitimate couple, but now she's actually falling for him. Whatever plans she had will fall to the wayside and she'll be turned into to a weepy lovesick mess over a man who isn't worth it a la Nicole Walker. Such a shame.
